    FEATURE - Andy Jennings hat einen neuen Guinness-Weltrekord für die schnellste Mülltonne über 100m aufgestellt

    Andy Jennings, 28, has set a new Guinness World Record for the fastest speed in a wheelie bin over 100m. He reached a speed of 43.35, pictured at Elvington Airfield, Sep 27 2020.SONDERKONDITIONEN: Satzpreis!
    Andy Jennings, 28, has set a new Guinness World Record for the fastest speed in a wheelie bin over 100m. He reached a speed of 43.35, pictured at Elvington Airfield, Sep 27 2020. A wacky design engineer is delighted to have set a new Guinness World Record after reaching speeds of over 40mph - in a WHEELIE BIN.

    Andy Jennings, 28, transformed his green household waste bin into a racing machine - complete with a small motorbike engine, a gear box, ignition, a bike seat, and the steering from a mobility scooter.

    And yesterday (Sunday), Andy hit the tarmac in his rigged-out bin to attempt to set his brand new world record.

    Guinness World Record officials set Andy a benchmark of over 30mph in order to secure the record for fastest wheelie bin.

    But the engineer, from Swindon, Wilts., smashed his goal - and stormed down the runway at Elvington Airfield in Yorkshire, at a whopping 43mph.

    Andy's impressive record was just one of several landspeed records broken at Elvington Airfield on Sunday, at an event organised by motorsport racing company Straightliners.

    Racing down the runway as well as Andy was the world's fastest motorised toilet (44.6mph), and the world's fastest garden shed (at an impressive 106.1mph).

    But one of the true "stars of the show" was self-confessed 'adrenaline junkie' Jason Liversidge, 44, who reached speeds of almost 65mph in a motorised wheelchair - despite being 95 per cent paralysed.

    Both Andy and Jason were "chuffed" to have smashed the targets set for them by Guinness World Record officials.

    Andy, whose world record attempt was in memory of his best friend Ben Ellis, who passed away in June, said: "It's been a great day all round.

    "I got my record, with 45.35mph - which is well above the target I was set *** L
